When single attorney Steven Creed becomes guardian of an orphaned five-year-old boy he trades his big-city law firm for a ranch near his McKettrick kin in the close-knit community of Stone Creek Arizona. Taking care of little Matt and fixing up his run-down ranch house with its old barn loosens something tightly wound inside him. But when Steven takes on the pro bono defense of a local teen he meets his match in the opposing counsel—beautiful by-the-book county prosecutor Melissa OBallivan. Itll take one grieving little boy a sweet adopted dog and a woman who never expected to win any mans heart to make this Creed in Stone Creek know hes truly found home.
